ArcD Academic Advising

College is an exciting challenge. We're here to help you make the most of it. Academic advisors remain available to help you plan ahead, access resources and opportunities, and strategically pursue your goals.

Schedule an Appointment

Connect with Our Academic Advisors

Real-time conversations with an academic advisor are the fastest path to assistance and support! We offer two kinds of real-time availability:

Any undergraduate student is welcome at drop-in hours:

Monday and Thursday afternoons, 12:30 - 4:30

Any current-semester questions are fair game. You can join those drop-in hours by checking in at Snow Hall room 252 or joining virtually at this link!

Graduate students should schedule an appointment with their academic advisor through JayhawkGPS for real-time assistance!

Some examples of questions and concerns which are ideal for drop-in hours (not an exhaustive list):

  • Current-semester concerns
  • Permission number requests
  • Enrollment adjustments (e.g. dropping, swapping, or adding a class)
  • Enrollment follow-up questions (after an initial enrollment advising appointment)
  • Approval for study abroad credit
  • Studying abroad
  • Campus and community resources
  • Policies and procedures of the Departments of Architecture and Design, School of Architecture & Design, and the University of Kansas

Students admitted to majors in ArcD can schedule an appointment with their academic advisor through JayhawkGPS! Here are instructions on how to do that.

 

To ensure that your academic advisor is adequately prepared to help, scheduled appointments are required for future-semester enrollment planning and other long-term planning.

Advisors are generally available to provide assistance between 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (Kansas Time) Monday through Friday.
